The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2025, Covert Musk by What We Do Is Secret is a creation from the skilled perfumer Annick Ménardo. This fragrance opens with acácia and honey, creating a warm and inviting top note that gradually transitions into a heart of ylang-ylang. The base notes feature musk, grounding the composition in a powdery and floral warmth. Covert Musk is neither overtly masculine nor feminine, making it an excellent choice for those who appreciate unisex scents.
Apply Covert Musk sparingly to let the honey and acácia top notes mingle with your skin before settling into the rich musk. It's best worn in cooler weather when its warmth is most comforting.
